BBC Breakfast: Naga Munchetty says she will be having words
Naga Munchetty has issued a warning to her BBC Breakfast collegues after she was almost caught out live on air.
The 49-year-old presenter was back on presenting dury on Friday (July 12) morning with co-host Charlie Stayt and the pair woke up the naton with the latest headlines from across the world.
They shared the news that the first red mail pillar box to bear the cypher of King Charles was unveiled this morning, keeping up a tradition dating back almost 175 years.
After watching a clip of school children sending letters in the new box installed on on the High Street in Great Cambourne, central England, Naga had a burning question for Charlie.
The TV star asked:"Are there any of the orginal Queen Victoria ones still in business?" Charlie replied: "I'm told there are some still in place."

Naga then asked: "How many?" Charlie replied: "I don't know how many but there are some." After a short pause, Naga revealed one of the team had told her a number in her earpeace "as a joke".
The confused host then told viewers: "Someone has just put a number in my ear as a joke but I'm not going to say that out loud. I will have words with them later though."
She swiftly moved on, saying: "Twelve minutes past nine, Carol [Kirkwood], no one would dare be as cheeky to you, would they?". The giggly weather presenter replied: 'Not at all, never happens Naga."
It comes after Naga and Charlie clashed on air over butterflies after sharing the news that organisers of The Big Butterfly Count are urging people to get involved with their latest campaign.
Host Charlie said: "There could be worse things to do for 15 minutes then just stare at a butterfly. I think it would be quite relaxing and quite nice." Naga added: "You're not supposed to stare at just the one."
He continued:"You could just do that anywhere to feel good. You could do the survey, that sounds great, but just take a moment to look a butterfly doing its business. It would be nice wouldn't it.
Naga disagreed: "I don't think you should go around scaring butterflies personally, staring and making them feel uncomfortable."
Charlie then got their co-star Carol Kirkwood invovled in the debate and the weather presented said: "I think it is a relaxing thing to do. It's like fish just swimming in a tank for an example."
